I wish I had a PS2, I never got to buying one.
They're fairly cheap nowadays and if you get one of the older models and a hard drive (and I believe a couple other small things) there's member here called CRTgamer has some excellent guides on installing PS2 games directly to the drive. Haven't done so myself but it's been on the to-do list for ages.
OK, sounds good, I'll add you as a friend, you have been very helpful like a lot of other people, and I'll add them too. You just made my day after a mod scolded me. :D

I will agree on the difficulty not being too tough if you are a drummer (I am as well)

Then again, I consider most expert guitar hero songs to be easy too.

Now Frequency... that game is hard. You owe it to yourself to get a ps2 and frequency, its excellent.

Amped and Mad Maestro, as well as Space Channel 5 Special, would make the purchase well worth it.

Don't feel too bad about Niode. He's a good guy with a lot on his plate. He's been a mod here for a long time and is commited to keeping the forums an overall pleasant place where people can express varied views reasonably. He just doesn't want the forums to degrade into a place without valued discussions.

Thanks for the feedback on my Guide. :D

Uhlala Special Edition
The PS2 version of Space Channel 5 also includes the import only Dreamcast Space Channel 2. Czernobog, you should bust that seal and check it out.

@ AmericanMuffin - Great review, you can spice it up by throwing in some pics by using the Img tool in the Edit window. Try to keep the pics under 725 wide for a clean easy to read presentation.

You'll find the HDAdvance/HDLoader Guide in the Guides section.

I'll throw in a vote for Luigi's Mansion. Never gave much thought to that game but noticed recently that there seem to be quite a few fans.

Count me as one of those fans. Easily my favorite GC game.
